Stationary states of weak coupling limit type Markov generators and quantum transport models

Abstract

We prove that every stationary state in the annihilator of all Kraus operators of a weak coupling limit type Markov generator consists of two pieces, one of them supported on the interaction-free subspace and the second one on its orthogonal complement. In particular, we apply the previous result to describe in detail the structure of a slightly modified quantum transport model due to Arefeva, Kozyrev and Volovich (modified AKV's model) studied first in Ref.\cite{gggq}, in terms of generalized annihilation and creation operators.
